Always quick to assume the worst of me and most times i let you.
You say you want to be put first, that when it comes to work or family, you are always the latter priority.
What you dont realise, is that i make you priority in everything else. That once you call my name, i run over to you, issues big or small, i drop everything and run to you all the same. But with you, I have to wait, until you finish your task at hand before I have a second of your time because you ‘didn’t liked to be distracted’. That I realise I couldn rely on you dropping everything, in small things, much less in situations that matter.
How do I make you see the importance of family and work to me, if you have never been close to yours. That here i am making effort to try at tying knots at broken arrangements, and all I asked for was your help. That you insist i had not put you first but, I do that every single day.
I learn something new in every relationship, and in this, to learn to put my pride down, to relent instead of rising to anger, and that there’s no way one can convince the other the importance of family/work or what matters to you. That they’d have to acknowledge and respect it. I’m always reminded to love myself, so here, where do I draw the line? How much sacrifice is too much sacrifice? How much love do I give, before I forget to care for myself?
That’s the difference isn’t it, a relationship that learns to respect each other is something we should strive for. Respect is so important, but heavily undermined. Learning how and when to apologise, not to raise voice, or fists, learning how and when to give in, learning to understand what is important to your partner, and out of love, make it important to you too. That’s what being supportive is about, no?
